This commit renames the UpdateFee RPC call together
with associated types to UpdateChannelPolicy. In addition
to fees, now also timelock delta can be specified using
this call.
In this commit we rename the lnrpc.PendingChannelRequest and
lnrpc.PendingChannelResponse to
lnrpc.PendingChannelsRequest/lnrpc.PendingChannelsResponse. We do this
as we strive to ensure that the naming scheme across the RPC interface
is consistent.
In this commit, we modify the OpenChannel, CloseChannel, SendCoins, and
SendMany RPC’s to be able to allow users to manually specify their
fees. Users can either specify a target number of confirmations, or a
target value for manual sat/byte.
This commit adds the service WalletUnlocker, which is to be used
for creating a wallet password at first time startup, and unlocking
the wallet. The service exposes the RPC methods CreateWallet and
UnlockWallet.
This commit adds to new RPC’s to the Lightning service: UpdateFees and
FeeReport. Additionally, we also update to the latest version of protc,
golang protobuf, and the gRPC gateway.
This commit adds some additional fields to the PendingChannels RPC s.t
users will be able to use the RPC to gain a complete view w.r.t where
all the funds within the daemon are, and how soon they can be
retrieved.
The following information is now returned:
* all channels pending open
* all channels pending cooperative close
* all channels pending force close
This commit converts the previous QueryRoute command to a new command:
QueryRoutes. This command is identical to QueryRoute other than the
fact that it’s able to return multiple routes rather than a single
route.
This commit adds synchronous version of the RPC’s to send payments over
channels and open new channels. The previous async versions of these
RPC calls have been removed from the REST interface.
Additionally for these two RPC calls any field which accepted byte
slices now also accept a variant of the field which is a hex-encoded
string.
The OpenChannelSync RPC is intended to be used along with either the
ListChannels or PendingChannels RPC to poll for a channels existence or
non-existence as a signal that the channel is finally open.
This commit adds a REST interface to the existing gRPC server by
employing a simple http proxy auto-generated from the existing protobuf
files. Currently full-support for any streaming RPC’s are currently
untested. In addition to auto-generating a REST proxy server, a
swagger.json is also generated which allows for gRPC-like native
objects with higher-level clients, and also for auto-generated
documentation.
Due to limitations with accepting raw byte strings as parameters, some
RPC’s have been modified to take both raw-bytes and string arguments.
Additionally a new RPC has been added ‘NewWitnessAddress’ since the
proxy doesn’t currently support enum-based arguments.
Currently the proxy server is embedded within the daemon as an active
HTTP server, however we may want to package the proxy server as a
separate binary in the future. Similarly, we may want to add additional
configuration information which controls the optional inclusion of the
REST proxy.
Atm, just like the current gRPC interface, the REST API is fully
unauthenticated. Before moving to an initial alpha release after making
the necessary changes to meet the spec drafted in Milan, authentication
of the RPC interfaces will be addressed.
